So it was my second practical on lesson two and I got a pretty easy-going and friendly malay instructor. We did the figure 8 and crank course first and I was surprised that my figure 8 was pretty decent. FOR ONCE XD
The first go at the crank course proved my near-accident with the poor tree. But after getting the hang of it and remembering what Melvin and the instructor said, the next few rounds were pretty decent. I remembered to tighten my grip (of my thighs to the engine) and to look far. I think I’m pretty good at the looking far part ;D
I still keep forgetting to check my blind spots but at least I remembered to cancel my signal in the figure of 8 (: I think I’m getting the hang of the cancelling of signal part, too (:
After that was the slope part. Not too bad. My engine probably died just once. And at least I did not roll backwards or anything ^_^
I thought before the practical ended I could do another round of the figure 8 and the crank course but in the middle of my figure 8, my instructor told me to stop my engine and the park the bike D: Does that mean I won’t pass this lesson? ):
We were the last group to be released since my instructor took 8094597349574 hours to get back to us and to brief us on our mistakes. He briefed the first few one-by-one until it was just the three of us left. And he handed out the booklet to this guy on my right and that poor guy looked so grave (since our instructor was looking solemn and grave as well) that I feared we had to retake the lesson or something. But when he opened his booklet, he passed! So our instructor gave the other guy his booklet and, finally, mine as well. I did not bother to open and, instead, was rushing off to book for my next slot when my instructor went, “Aye! Don’t want to open to check ar?” And I’m like, “Rushing to book! Rushing to book!” I opened my booklet AND I PASSED!!!!! WHEEEE!!!! I was so happy I shook both guys’ hands and my instructor’s hand as well and rushed off to get the next slot.
Which happened to be the same slot as The Turd so it seems like I’ll be going the early morning prac :D
SO HAPPY PLEASE! (:
